That Was Then, This is Now Lyrics

That Was Then, This is Now

Did You See Her When She Saw Us
I Could Feast On That For Days
She Was Jealous
Green With Envy When I Said My Fiance

So Delicious
So Addicting
Back For More

I Think You Just Had A Change In Status
She Used To Send Me Spiraling Into A Hopeless Place
Now I Get To Shove My Happy Love Life In Her Face

[Man Speaking]
I Thought She Was Your Oldest Friend.

[Helen speaking]
Oh, She Is.
I Love "Mad", I Love Her Like A Twin,
Who Stole My Nutrients In The Womb.

[Verse]
But That Was Then
This Is Now
Now My Crappy Life Is Better

And Madeline’s Tricks Have Lost Their Shine
She Played Games
Called Me Names
But This Time I Won’t Let Her

I’m Through With Her Petty Scheming
I No Longer Wake Up Screaming
That Was Then . This Is Now
Now I’ve Got Your Arms Around Me
And I Can Finally Laugh At All The Pain (ha-ha)
Now I’m Healed
Even Keeled
Now That Earnest Has Found Me
My Boring Old Willow Tree
Whose Eyes Only Pine For Me

I Love You

[Man]
I Love You

You’re My Person

[Man]
That’s Right, Dear
[Together]
Forever And Always True


She’ll Choke When She Sees How Loved I Am You
You Make Me Feel Like A Queen
In My Sweatpants And Old Underwear
You Let Me Wear My Retainer
And Sit Back, .. You Don’t Care

You Don’t Care That I Gave Up On Dreams
Because I Am Too Scared To Try
Or arms.............. It Makes Me Cry
Then I Spend Most Of My Life Chasing Friends
Who Forget That I’m There

That Was Then
This Is Now
Now I’ve Made A Transformation
And Helen Sharp Will Never Be The Same

I’ve Got You
You’ve Got Me
And I’m On New Medication
The Future Is Finally Clear
The Future I Want Is Here

I Love You

[Man]
I Love You
You’re My Person

[Man]
That’s Right, Dear

Forever And Always True

Who Cares About All My Old Boyfriends Who Stole?
I’m In Control
I Found My True Love
And I Finally Feel Whole
It’s All In The Past
I Won’t Dwelling
Because Everything’s Coming Up
Now!


Helen, a writer, has been stifled by her frenemy Madeline for over 20 years. Now with a cosmetic surgeon, Ernest Menville, Helen is no longer able to rely on Madeline's petty scheming and no longer wakes up screaming.
